   I did not get one, but I asked and got an email today saying they all have not been sent out yet.

2. DNP-CRNA OLOL College 2017

   S.Bird replied to RN,BSN,CCRN's topic in SRNA

   @ RN,BSN,CCRN I didn't apply to TWU, but a couple of my friends did. I am still waiting to hear back from the University of Maryland. I went to a campus visit at Duke this weekend and was so impressed by the faculty and facility. I am going to apply ...

3. DNP-CRNA OLOL College 2017

   S.Bird replied to RN,BSN,CCRN's topic in SRNA

   A denial email or regular post mail? I haven't checked my mailbox in a while. But there can't be any good news in it at this point. I'm only applying to one more school. I was trying to stay put for my recommendation letters. If I don't get accepted ...

4. DNP-CRNA OLOL College 2017

   S.Bird replied to RN,BSN,CCRN's topic in SRNA

   No, I haven't received one. But I'm assuming since I didn't get an acceptance, that's the only other alternative. I kept checking my email all day Friday. I was so disappointed, as I REALLY wanted this program! So sending notifications out on Friday ...

6. How to get a CVICU position

   S.Bird replied to Alexxoxox's topic in CCU

   It might be helpful to attend a job fair in your area if available. That usually indicates that they have multiple staff openings and more likely to extend offers to new grads or nurses in different specialties.

7. LSU CRNA 2018

   S.Bird replied to GaMommy81's topic in SRNA

   I do not have enough posts to reply to a PM. LSU requires a separate $100 supplemental fee in addition to the one for NursingCAS. I sent mine, but after you submit on CAS the school should email you to let you know if they have received it or not. Ho...

   S.Bird replied to RN,BSN,CCRN's topic in SRNA

   Oh my goodness, thank you so much for this post! I have been in hard study mode ever since my interview invitation! Before they begin do they introduce themselves so you know who you're interviewing with? Afterwards are we able to tour the campus? Do...

   I got my interview call yesterday! I listened to the voicemail like 6 times I must admit. So excited and nervous!

10. LSU CRNA 2018

    S.Bird replied to GaMommy81's topic in SRNA

    I applied also. I think the personal check is fine. That is what I sent too. When I inquired about my application, I was told everything was complete. I am taking that as my payment method was acceptable.

11. Failed my NCLEX RN idk what to do now

    S.Bird replied to Future Nurse 21's topic in NCLEX

    I did Hurst and Kaplan while in school. I used the Kaplan method for test taking strategies when all else failed. However the book Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment by LaCharity was my main study tool after graduation. I passed the first tim...

12. Multiple Applications, References

    S.Bird replied to btfly's topic in SRNA

    I needed several recommendations this year. I asked them in person first to gauge their reaction. You have to know if they are genuinely supportive of your goals, and I don't think that is easily conveyed through email. Of course they were, but you h...

    S.Bird replied to TXCVICURN's topic in SRNA

    TCU is my number one school choice. I pray I get accepted this year! Did you apply to all three?

    I applied for 2018 start. Still waiting to hear back hopefully!

15. Would you accept the FIRST program that extends an offer to you?

    S.Bird replied to icuCCRNurse's topic in SRNA

    A bird in the hand... I think it would be wise to accept at least one school while you are waiting to hear back. I agree that the deposits may play an important role. Also consider overall cost of admission for you to attend (out of state fees, stipe...
